The centre of Southdown Motor Services operations in Eastbourne, the bus station (with garage) dates probably from the 1930s. It has since been converted into a night club. The bus is one of the iconic Southdown Leyland PD3 double-deckers with full width driver's cab, known as 'Queen Marys'. Body built by Northern Counties, with the distinctive short bay in the centre of the body. No.267 was built in 1965. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=2114547&displayclass=slide
